Step 4: Configuring your Belkin Wireless Cable/DSL Router
(the Router) for connection to the Internet
Accessing the Web Based Setup Utility
By now, you should have the information about your Internet Service
Provider written on the worksheet at the beginning of this manual. Please
have it handy as you go through this procedure. Your Router is equipped
with a setup utility that is ‘web-based’, which means that you will use
your Internet browser to do the setup. To access the Router’s setup utility
use your web browser (either Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator).
1. Using the computer that was originally connected directly to the
Cable/DSL modem, launch your browser. When your browser
launches, it will attempt to find your home page. In some cases, the
router will be able to connect to the Internet without any further setup.
If your home page is displayed in the browser, then no further setup is
needed. You can begin surfing the net, or continue on to learn how to
configure the router.
If a message pops up in the browser stating that the page could not be
found, this is normal. Please go to the next step. Note: You can access the
setup utility from any computer on the network, however, use the original
computer for this procedure at this time.
2. In the address bar, type the following address: 192.168.2.1.
